India’s Best ODI XI of the 1980s

#7 Syed Kirmani

Syed Kirmani was India's frontline wicket-keeper for the most part of 80s

Syed Kirmani was India’s frontline wicket-keeper for the most part of the 80s. The diminutive keeper was a glovesman par excellence, taking some electrifying catches behind the stumps.

‘Kiri’ was a pretty handy customer with the bat too and forged some match-saving partnerships with the tail-enders. A tough nut to crack, Kirmani was a fighter who never gave up in tough circumstances.
